After Asimo's mind reading the rise of the machines continues as UK boffins reveal new robot scientist that conducts genetic research without the need for men in white coats.
UK researchers at Cambridge and Aberystwyth universities believe they've broken new ground and come up with a robotics first by creating a 'robot scientist' capable of carrying out scientific research without the need for human intervention.
